About Me

Right, so, I feel it's important to update this since I'm no longer in Eugene in any way, and I'm now spending my time working and going to school out here in Lakeville, Mass. Yes, I don't know where anything is in this state, so if you start talking to me and ask me where "Buzzard's Bay" is I'll just look at you funny and nod my head. Because that's what I do. My AIM name is StCrowe42, so feel free to leave a message, even if I'm away. I'll always get back to you eventually.

My Interests

I'm a big movie and music fan, and I'm slowly trying to get an extensive movie collection going. Being a poor college student, it's not working quite as well as I would have hoped however. But I'm optimistic! Also, I love books and reading and, most importantly, writing. I try and write something every day, but knowing my lazy ass, that's not always the case. Yes, if you are cute enough and flirt enough, I will write your English paper for you. Why? Because I'm a total sucker when it comes to women. Can't help it, nor do I want to. Let's see, what else...er, I love going out on the town, finding new places to eat and new things to see. Museums are always great, so are theaters (not movie theaters). To be fair, I am a slightly bland eater, and I tend to stick with foods I'm familiar with rather than try something new, but I am looking to change that.

I'd like to meet:

Wonder and Wanderlust in Winter
